We've created a starter project template for Across applications. This should help you quickly setup new projects with the most common basic options.
You can find the starter at https://bitbucket.org/beforeach/across-starter https://bitbucket.org/beforeach/across-starter.
How to use
Just clone the repository, import the maven pom.xml in you favourite IDE and then go change the module/class/file names to the ones you want. The README.MD file included should tell you what you need to know.…
After some time of testing 1.1.3-SNAPSHOT we have released a maintenance release 1.1.3 of Across.
This release contains bugfixes in Across core. You can see the full list on the 1.1.3 Release notes https://foreach.atlassian.net/wiki/display/AX/1.1.3.
Alongside 1.1.3 Across core, we also fixed some issues in the following two modules:

An introduction to Across was given at Devoxx Antwerp last week. Slides can be found here https://t.co/HuQqTWYuMy, the entire presentation is available on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcWDlU-n1uQ.
In this article we'll be focusing on some of the templating infrastructure that AcrossWebModule provides. We'll create a layout template for our pages, show a way to register static resources programmatically and show an easy way to set up a dynamic top navigation that can later be extended at runtime.
In this series we try to give a quick overview of how to build web applications using Across and its Standard Modules. Across is a framework focused on building application modules on top of Spring framework. A single Across module packs a Spring ApplicationContext configuration, along with all web controllers, templates and static resources required to run it. Across is very much developer focused, aiming at Java developers already proficient with Spring framework.
As of EntityModule 2.0.0 the default list views of the entity admin interfaces are being generated using a SortableTableBuilder. You can easily use this functionality yourself to generate bootstrap compliant tables of any registered entity. You can even use it for any custom class, but then you might have to add some more configuration. SortableTableBuilder is a prototype scoped bean but the easiest point of access is going through the EntityViewElementBuilderHelper.…
With a couple of months delay, we finally released Across 1.1.2. This is a major update that simplifies building applications with Across and integrates with Spring Boot. The full list of changes can be found in the reference documentation http://across.foreach.be/docs/across/1.1.2.RELEASE/reference/#_what_s_new_in_this_version. While the documentation is still a work in progress, it has greatly improved already and all new features should have up-to-date documentation.…
In order to streamline development of all things Across, I've published some contributor guidelines. They should aid working together and improve the overall quality in code and documentation. Whereas what's done is done, we do expect them to be followed as of today.
